Summary: Solid‐state olefin metathesis of rigid‐rod acyclic diene metathesis (ADMET) polymers and ring‐closing metathesis (RCM) have been investigated. 1,4‐Dipropoxy‐2,5‐divinylbenzene ( 4 ) was synthesized and used in a bulk ADMET polymerization to produce oligomers of dialkoxy poly(phenylene vinylene). The reaction was continued in the solid state, effectively doubling the molecular weight. Solid‐state RCM was investigated with a variety of solid dienes and metathesis catalysts, and demonstrated in low conversions using amide diene 5 with catalysts 9 , 13 , and 14 .
